I had my fall, but it wasn't a very interesting story.

An idiot friend of mine has a great story.

He'd been looking to get into road cycling for a while, so about 2 weeks ago we finally go out and get him his first road bike. I get him into SPD pedals, because they're easy, low maintenance, they work, and you can walk around in your shoes.

I've got the pedal set real loose so he can pop in and out easily. He's pretty nervous about the whole thing. Sure enough, he's riding up and down the block, popping in and out, saying things like 'Is that it? That's easy'.

So in about 30 seconds, he's already overconfident.

At the end of the 5 minute ride, he slows down and starts trying to TRACK STAND! I'm sitting there staring going 2..1..

Sure enough. BAM, the idiot falls. As he falls, he sticks his knee out instead of tucking it in to land on the side of his leg and takes a nice divot from his knee. hahahaha. He hasn't tried the track stand thing again.
